Nope! If libnetfilter_acct is compiled from source it does *not* require 
glibc >= 2.9 and uses the version of glibc on the host system.

It is how I managed to build (and use) ulogd on one of my FC13-based 
machines - built and installed it from source, together with its 
immediate dependencies (libnetfilter_acct-devel, libnetfilter_log-devel, 
libnfnetlink-devel & libnetfilter_conntrack_devel).

There is currently a "bug" in the main ulogd.spec file (at least for my 
Fedora distribution) as it doesn't have a BuildRequires for 
libnetfilter_acct-devel - maybe because Fedora people are too lazy and 
haven't got arround to create the libnetfilter_acct package yet.
